+## lockfile-path
+* Original Issue: [#5707](https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo/issues/5707)
+* Tracking Issue: [#14421](https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo/issues/14421)
+
+This feature allows you to specify the path of lockfile Cargo.lock. 
+By default, lockfile is written into `<workspace_root>/Cargo.lock`. 
+However, when sources are stored in read-only directory, most of the cargo commands 
+would fail, trying to write a lockfile. The `--lockfile-path`
+flag makes it easier to work with readonly sources. 
+Note, that currently path must end with `Cargo.lock`. Meaning, if you want to use 
+this feature in multiple projects, lockfiles should be stored in different directories.
+Example:
+
+```sh
+cargo +nightly metadata --lockfile-path=$LOCKFILES_ROOT/my-project/Cargo.lock -Z unstable-options
+```
